Manufacturing
Students interested in the transformation of raw materials into commercially successful products might consider the ISE Manufacturing Engineering track. The curriculum in Manufacturing Engineering exercises students’ background in chemistry, physics, and mathematics toward the understanding and improvement of manufacturing materials, processes, and systems. Courses focus on process engineering, design for manufacturability, design of work-holding/dies/molds, numerical (computer) simulation, and automation/robotics – as applied to machining processes, sheet forming operations, metal casting, and polymer processing.
This track requires students to complete a minimum of 15 credit hours.
